Meek Mill and Jay-Z know exactly how to make Robert Kraft's birthday extra special. To mark the latter's milestone on Saturday, June 5, the "Empire State of Mind" hitmaker and the "All Eyes on You" rapper teamed up with Michael Rubin to surprise the New England Patriots owner with a new Bentley.
On Monday, June 7, Meek took to Instagram to share a video that saw Michael walking Robert out of his house. After the billionaire businessman saw the luxurious car waiting for him, he gasped, "Oh my God," while slapping his forehead with both hands.
Robert further gushed, "That's exactly what…," before going speechless and embracing Michael while giving him a peck on the cheek instead. While the pair were heading to the blue vehicle, the Philadelphia 76ers co-owner explained, "This came from Meek, and Jay, and Will."
Still feeling shocked with the present, Robert asked, "How the fudge did you get it? Because we couldn't get it." In response, Michael replied, "We have resources... It's been driving on a flatbed for a long time."
As the two approached the car, Michael showed him a handmade birthday card that read, "Happy 80th birthday," on the front and "Except you look 40. And act 25!" on the inside. Upon reading it, Robert couldn't help but chuckle before embracing the younger man once again.
Although Meek did not hand the gift to Robert in person, he sent birthday wishes to the latter in the caption of the post. "Drop top bent for Kraft," the 34-year-old MC raved. "lol hbd robert."
Meek, Jay-Z and Michael have a close friendship with Robert. Back in 2019, they joined forces with Brooklyn Nets co-owner Clara Wu Tsai, Robert F. Smith, Michael Novogratz and Laura Arnold to launch the REFORM Alliance, an organization dedicated to criminal justice reform.
